Large Animal Rescue Resources

In emergency situations, many first-responders arrive well prepared to deal with HUMAN crises. But what if your 911 is a HORSE emergency?

Designed to be used as an on-site resource for responders who do not understand horses and are unfamiliar with Large Animal Rescue training, Save Your Horse! A Horse Owners Guide to Large Animal Rescue may help. Save Your Horse! is a handy guide that details step-by-step procedures for extricating your horse from life-threatening entrapment and gives specific information on how to get the job done safely. Michelle Staples, author of Save Your Horse!, also offers a new "horse basics" CD, Horse Awareness and Safety. Through a Powerpoint presentation and a hands-on class using live horses, Horse Awareness and Safety teaches horse handling, behavior, and first aid, as well as scene safety and assessment, and barn fire safety.
